  • the evaporation residue is purified by column chromatography or triturated with a little amount of n-hexane, decanted, 10 ml of water are added to the oil, the pH value is adjusted to alkaline by adding sodium hydroxide solution (when necessary), then the product is extracted three times with 20 ml of ethyl acetate each. The combined organic phase is washed with 50 ml of water, dried and evaporated to give 0.11 g (48%) of the oily base.
  • the salt is obtained in a yield of 0.136 g (31%); hygroscopic white crystals, m.p.: 120-122° C.
  • the title compound is prepared as described in Example 27, except that ethyl isocyanate is used as reagent to obtain the oily base in a yield of 59%.
  • Example 26 The title compound is prepared as described in Example 19, except that N-[4-[2-[N-methyl-N-[2-(2,6-dimethylphenoxy)-1-methylethyl]amino]ethyl]phenyl]acetamide (Example 26) is used as starting material to give the oily base in a yield of 60%.
  • Example 49 N-methyl-2-(2-isopropylphenoxy)-1-methylethylamine (Example 49) is used as starting substance to give the oily base in a yield of 52%.
  • the HCl salt is obtained in a total yield of 38%; white crystals, m.p.: 86-89° C.
  • the product is extracted twice with 40 ml of ethyl acetate each, the organic phase is washed twice with 25 ml of 2 N hydrochloric acid each, twice with 20 ml of water each, twice with 20 ml of 1 N sodium carbonate solution each and finally three times with 20 ml of water each, and after evaporation of the solvent, if necessary, the evaporation residue is crystallized from a mixture of hexane and diisopropyl ether.
  • R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are as given in Table 10, n and m are 0 and X means 4-toluenesulfonyloxy group, were prepared.
